As for the rest of your post, you continue to treat this as if it's an either or situation. Addressing the fact that a false accusation is a serious issue doesn't diminish rape or avoid questions on the root societal issues involved, it's simply one part of the bigger problem. Does discussing breast cancer diminish colon cancer? Of course not, they are different aspects of a larger issue. Those posters are ridiculous, but there's no reason that people of both genders can't have an intelligent conversation about the topic of false accusations without being treated as if they are minimizing rape.
Sorry, I think I was wrong. I remember reading it somewhere but not sure where. I'll edit that part out unless I can find the source.

I checked the little warriors website and they do tell you to teach kids the correct terms starting as early as possible, but their basis is that it fosters better communication and decreases a child's vulnerability to a sexual assault if they are educated about their own bodies.
